Chapter 82: The Secret Recipe
Princess Jiang was surprised, "I heard your fourth aunt say that you want to make pastries for her to eat, and you really made them?" ”
Regardless of whether Jiang Juan does it or not, she can think of making pastries for Mrs. Jiang Si to eat.
Mrs. Jiang Si was very moved.
After Jiang Juan left, Ruan went to see her, and Mrs. Jiang Si praised Jiang Juan for being sensible after getting married.
Although no one takes what Jiang Juan said seriously.
Now that Jiang Juan has made pastries and brought them back, how can she not be surprised.
"Of course, it's going to be done, it's not delicious, and grandmother can't dislike it," Jiang Wan said coquettishly.
Jin Er took the pastry out of the food box.
Old Princess Jiang took a piece and said with a smile, "It's very good to look at." ”
She took a bite and chewed twice, "It's also good to eat." ”
Ruan raised his hand and said, "Come here, I'll taste it too." ”
Her daughter actually knows how to cook, which is like the sun coming out of the west, which is a novelty, how can a mother not taste it?
After eating half of the piece, Nguyen said, "What is this pastry made of, it tastes very strange, it doesn't look like it's made of flour." ”
Jin Er is a little weak-hearted.
If you want your wife to know that it is made of donkey skin, you must not spit it out on the spot?
Jiang Wan half told the truth and half lied, "This is a secret recipe, it can replenish qi and blood, nourish yin and moisturize the lungs, and can also beautify and nourish the skin, improve sleep, it is the most suitable for the fourth aunt to eat, and it is also beneficial for my mother, grandmother and aunt to eat often." ”
Princess Jiang didn't expect that the pastry had so many benefits in addition to filling her stomach, she looked at the pastry carefully and said, "This pastry can be seen except for the black and red part, and it is something that nourishes people." ”
Ruan Shi wondered, "Where did the secret recipe come from?" ”
Jiang Xuan, "....... ”
Why dig into the roots?
She really didn't want to lie.
"It's given by the princess," Jiang Wan said crisply.
Jiang Juan was still thinking about whether to say that the princess often eats, and she was afraid that one day the Ruan family would leak her mouth in front of the princess.
As a result, before she could think about it, Princess Jiang thought of the princess, "Princess Jing'an's body and bones were not very good before, and she has been recuperating for a long time, isn't it just eating this?" ”
Jiang Wan scratched her forehead, "It should be, the princess has a good complexion, I hope the fourth aunt can also raise it so well." ”
The princess has a superb appearance and a better complexion, and even the Ruan family can't compare.
Princess Jiang didn't dare to expect Mrs. Jiang Si to be able to raise the princess's good looks, and she was half satisfied.
Jiang Juan hugged Princess Jiang's arm and said, "This pastry is not difficult to make, but it is not easy to save it in hot weather, I will tell the cook the secret recipe when I go back, and let her make it once in two or three days." ”
Old Princess Jiang patted Jiang Juan's face and said, "If you have this heart, grandmother will be satisfied, since it is a secret recipe, Princess Jing'an did not agree to spread it, but she can't give it away, even if it is a grandmother." ”
Jiang Juan was next to Princess Jiang, and only people who really thought about her would say that.
She didn't insist, just go back and ask Qi Moyuan to send the secret recipe and give him a chance to brush up on his good feelings.
This pastry can be eaten often, but not many times at a time, and Jiang Wan who should be told dare not forget it.
After sitting for a while, Jiang Juan went to Mrs. Jiang Si.
Mrs. Jiang Si was almost the same as the last time, her face was pale, her body was weak, and when she saw Jiang Juan, she said, "I just heard that the maid said that you made pastries and brought them back, so you came to Aunt Four." ”
For the Hejian Palace, Jiang Juan's return to the door is a big deal.
The maid brought a stool, Jiang Juan sat down and said, "Then the pastries I made don't taste good, and the fourth aunt can't throw them away." ”
Mrs. Jiang Si smiled, "You finally made pastries, why is the fourth aunt willing to throw them away?" ”
"The maids have said it all, the old princess, they are full of praise for the cakes you made."
Jin Er brought out the pastry and said with a smile, "The fourth lady tastes it, you are made by the girl alone, and there is a difference between it and the old princess." ”
Although some medicinal herbs were added to the other pastries, there were not many of them.
The fourth lady has the most donkey skins and the most medicinal materials, and it took an afternoon just to boil the medicine, but it was laborious.
Mrs. Jiang Si picked up a piece and ate it.
Taste –
It's not that good.
After all, it is the Hejian Palace, and the chefs invited are always good.
In addition, Mrs. Jiang Si has a bad body and bones, and her appetite is not good, and her food is even more delicate.
Compared with those pastries, Jiang Juan's taste is much worse.
But Mrs. Jiang Si is very satisfied, a lady who doesn't touch the spring water with ten fingers, and can't even distinguish between oil and salt, cooks and makes pastries, and it is rare to be able to eat it.
After Jiang Juan left that day, Mrs. Jiang Si was worried that she would burn down Bai Jingxuan's kitchen, and regretted not persuading her to dispel this idea.
Mrs. Jiang Si ate a piece, and Jiang Juan handed her another piece.
As soon as it was handed over, the maid brought the medicine, and a bitter and astringent taste spread.
Mrs. Jiang Si frowned, the maid was deliberately brought here at this time.
Mrs. Jiang Si doesn't like to take medicine, but Jiang Juan is here, she can't stop taking medicine, and being an elder taking medicine is all pushing, how can she set an example for juniors?
Mrs. Jiang Si stretched out her hand to take the medicine, Jiang Juan looked at the maid and said, "Take the medicine." ”
The maid's eyes widened, and the girl didn't persuade the fourth wife, why did she still ask her to take it down?
Jiang Juan looked at Mrs. Jiang Si and said, "This pastry is specially made for the fourth aunt's illness, with symptomatic medicine and other medicines, the fourth aunt has eaten a lot over the years, with little effect, why don't you just eat pastries this month?" ”
The maid was a little worried.
How can you get sick from eating pastries?
Even if it's a food supplement, it's not like that.
Mrs. Jiang Si didn't care, she had already looked down on life and death, if she hadn't been relieved that the fifth young master and the eighth young master would have gone with Jiang Si Ye long ago.
She always said that it was useless to take medicine, but if she didn't take it, a bunch of people would persuade her, and she had to take it.
At this time, Jiang Juan said that she only ate pastries, but she fell into the hands of Mrs. Jiang Si, she smiled, "Although it is very light, the fourth aunt also eats the medicinal taste from the pastries, and this month, the fourth aunt only eats the pastries you make." ”
"Then every five days, I'll send one back to the fourth aunt," Jiang Wan said.
"After eating the pastry, the fourth aunt remembered to ask the maid to help you go to the garden for more walks, at least a quarter of an hour, even if you are weak and can't get out of the courtyard, you have to walk more in the yard."
Mrs. Jiang Si couldn't help laughing, "This advice is really a bit like a doctor." ”
"The fourth aunt can't help but take my advice seriously," Jiang Juan said seriously.
Mrs. Jiang Si smiled even more, "Okay, the fourth aunt will listen to you." ”
The maid stood aside with the medicine bowl, she felt that it was necessary to sue the eldest lady, and she couldn't let the fourth lady cling to the girl.
Illness can be treated as child's play.
The fourth wife is so weak that she doesn't take medicine, but I'm afraid that she won't be able to carry it for three or two months.
Even if you pet a girl, you can't take your life.
The maid was anxious, and before Jiang Juan left, she went to Ruan's to complain.
Ruan Shi hurriedly came and said to Mrs. Jiang, "The fourth brother and sister can't listen to Wan'er, they have to take this medicine." ”
After speaking, his eyes glared at Jiang Juan, "You can't joke with your fourth aunt's life." ”
There is no harm in eating that pastry, it doesn't matter if Mrs. Jiang Si eats it, but it can't be used as medicine.
Jiang Wan was tired.
She hugged Ruan Shi and said, "Mother, I'm not joking. ”
No matter what Jiang Juan said, Ruan disagreed.
Jiang Juan, who was forced, could only back down, "Or, let the fourth aunt take it for three days first, and if the condition gets worse, take medicine." ”
For three days, Nguyen hesitated.
Mrs. Jiang Si smiled weakly, "Sister-in-law, those medicines don't have much effect, it's okay to take three days less." ”
"It's only three days," Nguyen said.
"In three days, I'll come and watch you take your medicine."
Jiang Wanyan bared her teeth, "Look at what Niang said, as if she was sure that the fourth aunt would get sicker." ”
Ruan Shi couldn't wait to beat her, so he had to change his words, "It's naturally best to be able to heal with just eating pastries." ”
After staying at Mrs. Jiang Si's place for a while, Jiang Wan and Ruan Shi left.
It was almost time for lunch, and Qi Moyuan hadn't come yet.
Jiang Wan was a little worried.
She said that she went out of the Ministry of Servants' Mansion, and she accompanied her back to the door, she has been back for a long time, why haven't you seen anyone?
Not at ease, Jiang Juan asked Jin'er to send someone back to Jing'an Palace, and just after the order, Princess Jiang smiled and said, "The prince has already come." ”
